here comes holiday

finally shahril's assesments r over. finally. aihh betapa susahnya nk menguatkan hati menghabiskan objek2 aneh utk sebuah assesment. especially when theres not much ppl in d class, n they r not working in a design studio ( i sooooooo missed studio life eventho its kind of smelly hahihoho). poor hubby he's kind of miserable towards d day of d prezentation. but thank god evrything is completed by morning, n his project turn out pretty good. :) . so, we r sooooo gonna spoil ourselves this few months ( FEW MONTHS). hahahoho. yesterdy we've alrdy rented some movies (i finally get to watch sex n the city d movie). we rented house season 3 (gregory house reminds me much of encik muta'ali othman, tp house adalah lebih hensem dgn mata birunya. sori cik tat. hahahohoho). we also managed to get something for ourselves from the op shop yesterday :

dont u guys just love old books? d illustrations, d yellowish paper, d smell. kan kan. except for the silverfish. ekhheuw. i run out of books to read alrdy. im not actually a serious reader, just to fill in free time when not sewing or sleeping or youtubing antm. when i was little i used to read enid blyton's (d folk of faraway tree, d cat with a feathery tail, n lots more), and there's harry potter and some stephen king's at home. i choose books to read depending by their cover (most of them have white background for d cover hohohoho). what kind of book interests you?

(ex libris adalah tidak berkaitan langsung dgn exorcism)

cute cute

dis looks like charles, eh?

there's a few stories in this book.

and d best part is, it costs only one australian dollar = about rm3. hahohoho.

another good bargain we had yesterday is dis :

i think dis map is not dat old pun. maybe he's even a repro. tapi die menarik sebagai plan jangka panjang (for our house which has not even exist). d shop sells dis for $2.50, but upon paying, d shopkeeper gave us discount becoz d map is torn. jadik kami hanya bayar 50cent utk map ini. hahahohohihihi.

plan-plan lain utk cuti kali ini adalah seperti berikut :

1) pergi berbaring2 di pasir di pantai sambil men'tan' kan kulit dgn cahaya uv

2) bercucuk tanam dan menebang pokok2 buluh di belakang rumah

3) mengemaskini laman dihadapan rumah

4) meng'make over' blog sendiri dan blog kumpat yg dh bersawang

5) dan bemacam2 lagi

jadik itu sahaja utk review pembelian op shop kali ini. esok kami akan meneruskan my aussie adventure kami ke ballarat utk jalan jalan cari kanggaru bersama rakan2 sepermainan yg lain. if possible, im gonna check poket kanggaru utk zati, sama ada ia benar2 wujud dan bagaimanakah rupa sebenarnya. eda pula akan menyahut cabaran mencium beruang koala (aku tuntut haa). kayla mungkin akan memperagakan kostum kanggaru bersama pasangan sehidup sematinya, radzi. baik, sehingga ketemu di lebaran diari elektronik yg lain. enjoy ur weekend ya. ciao!

kisah rama rama dan pengembara

i used to go to art class when i was a little. to be specific, when i was in standard two, going into standard three. that was about 16 years ago. whoa. 16. i went for the class up until i was 15. me and my brother were among the few malays in the class, and we were also the ones lasted that long. our teacher is a Chinese teacher, Mr Kong. a very good teacher, that's why he is also fierce. huhuhu. imagine that when he sneeze, everybody in the class would jump in suprise (or is it in shock?), including his wife, which is also his assistant. yeap, he's that type of good teacher, who would discipline you well. he would tear up your drawing homework just-like-that if you didnt finish the drawing. scary huh. yeah some of the students would end up crying, but that is his way to discpline them. and thanks for his teaching and the way he educates us, we are good in what we do best; drawings and artsy stuff. The art class was once every week, which was saturday night. Oh i can still remember how i hate Saturdays that time, as i would have to finish one drawing as a homework from the previous week. And if we were travelling to relatives house, my parents would make sure that we would be back home before the class. Sometimes when i'm rajin enough, i would finish my drawing earlier so that i would have time to go to pasar malam and watch doraemon a bit before going to class (the class was at 730pm, i think ). hehe. makan apam balik and jagung rebus rush2 mandi sembahyang magrib then go to class. i missed those days :).

and after that time, i dont really paint that much (draw banyak lah. draw sampah sarap itu ini conteng sana conteng sini). ada lah sekeping dua lukis gambar kucing lukis gambar tahpaper, but never a complete canvas drawing. sampailah satu hari nih, before i fly to melbourne, Mr Kong and Mrs Linda came to my house. (My family and his are actually quite close, muhibbah kan? hihi). Then masa borak2 tuh he said, 'Y dont u paint anymore?'. Trus i dont know what to answer. Ntahla cikgu, saya pun tak tau knapa saya tak melukis. mungkin saya nak jadik ahli musik, bukan pelukis. Hihihihi. tak funny huh. Ye lah, after all those years u have been drawing, then the teacher came to house and he didnt see a single drawing pun on the wall. mungkin saya rasa lukisan saya buruk sbb tuh saya tak mo gantung cikgu. Ataupun melukis bukan lah passion saya? atau sebenarnya hobi saya memancing? salahhh! sebenarnya awak nih malas! hihihihi!! *malu dgn diri sendiri*

Jadi untuk membuktikan ketidak malasan saya, dan oleh kerana saya baaaaaaanyakk sangat masa terluang kerana saya ini menganggur (sape ada keje kosong di melben sila sms ke 6014 13270461 ), maka saya pun berjaya (yes yesss!) menghabiskan sebuah lukisan malas yg bertajuk kisah rama-rama dan pengembara. tipu jek. tajuk sebenar dia adalah seperti dibawah. sekian sahaja episode ehwal islam kita kali ini, sehingga berjumpa lagi di minggu hadapan. wabillahitaufik walhidayah wassalamualaikum warahmatullah hiwabarakatuh. *arabic music continues then fade*
